Sandy W December 31, 2018 Share December 31, 2018 19 minutes ago, lma said: Christine seems genuinely happy [on social media]. Polygamy is her thing so I guess there’s no use in wishing she’d flee. She loves it, and she’s obviously back in Kody’s good graces. As long as she’s in the top 2, I’d say she’s happy. Bless her little heart. What will be interesting is if when the show starts back, she’s all sad and angry on the show. Let’s see how they’ll fake it this season. Christine's goal in life is to play Follow the Leader as far as her King Kody is concerned. She blithely ignores the fact that she is uprooting 3 school age children on what appears to be a whim. It apparently didn't work, but I felt proud of Janelle for attempting to stand her ground regarding the school disruption, she is also leaving behind her only grandchild. 4 Link to comment
xwordfanatik December 31, 2018 Share December 31, 2018 Yes, Christine will probably never do anything to incur the wrath of ol' shark eyes. Unlike her mother Annie, I think Christine is there for good, a polygamist to the end. I know what it's like to be uprooted in high school. I wish her youngest 3 kids to have an easier time than I did. I too was happy that Janelle at least expressed her displeasure about the move. 6 Link to comment
deirdra January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 (edited) I cannot image what half-assed reason they will have for moving to another state, probably in the middle of the night with Kodouche running back & forth like a chicken with his head cut off. How many flat tires will there be this time? Will they buy another vehicle and make a big dill of registering it? When what work they do is all online, you can live anywhere, so why would they want to rip the kids out of school and move farther from their grown children and grandson? Or is Kody looking for another wife from the plyg colony to add to the drama? Edited January 1, 2019 by deirdra 8 Link to comment

Another thought could be that David "Dayton" is going to college here. I could understand Robyn wanting a place for him to live while going to school. Living in a dorm setting might not be the best for him, plus it is a smaller school than UNLV. Wouldn't doubt for a minute that he might consider another wife if it will keep the show on. That would really make for an interesting season, because Robyn admitted that she didn't think they needed any more wives. I really like the show. Just wish they would be a little more honest about their struggles with polygamy. 3 Link to comment

Not a documentary, or running a camera or two in their houses, without editing. I don't watch, just read here. There is plenty of snarkworthy info just from that!! 7 Link to comment

I like to think it decreases the snark we have left for friends & family, making our own lives more peaceful. Edited January 3, 2019 by deirdra 14 Link to comment

I'm thinking the black that you see as pants is part of a statue that they are leaning on. Looks like Mykelti's boot right there in the middle. This photo really shows how very different Mykelti looks from her siblings. They all have Christine's oval face features yet Mykelti has Kody's beady eyes and is very round. I guess the dark hair is to "stand out in the crowd"...but honestly she looks so different that she doesn't need to. 7 Link to comment

Truely is leaning over, maybe with her head on Mykelti's pregnant belly (NO!!!!) or on the hidden person's head. But directly below her (circled in red) is what appears to be a leg of someone hiding behind Ysabel. The blue circle appears to be Ysabel's purse or a plastic bag, and she looks like she might be leaning back against the person whose right leg is showing. I do see the bears behind the bench and in the left corner, but what I'm looking at looks like another person. I have to get a real life. 2 Link to comment

I think Mykelti is actually seated on something you can see her foot resting on the red circled "leg" and Truely has her head resting on Mykelti's lap not her belly. There's no hidden person, at least not any living hidden person may be a statue though. 2 Link to comment

laurakaye January 11, 2019 Share January 11, 2019 (edited) Based on this photo, if I didn't know better (which I don't), I would say that Mykelti is 9 months pregnant, just in the way that Truely is posed and the amount of Mykelti's belly showing under Truely's arm...unless like you all said, Mykelti is sitting and Truely is balanced on Mykelti's knees? Knowing the bizarre poses Mykelti likes, nothing would surprise me. Perhaps she's even got FT underneath her LLN dress, who knows. Edited January 11, 2019 by laurakaye 6 Link to comment

I'm going to go onto IMDB and look at the cast of Sense & Sense and see if there is a fat ugly dude that FT can pretend to be!" Sadly, even though some of the cast were older men, none were fat at all and none were unattractive enough. Probably FT will stay home and play video games.

With four families and 18 kids, no wonder Janelle seems to eat herself into oblivion. The way they have to relocate to a different state each move, is suspect in itself, IMO. True - but why wouldn't finances with the Browns be a constant problem? They drift from job to job and in-between have no jobs at all! They start up businesses that fail - and believe me, there is nothing as hard as making a new business viable! In the beginning it is all expenses! It seems to ME that a man who wishes to practice polygamy should have the profession that can support multiple wives and the hordes of children that result. 10 Link to comment

Sasha888 January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 So Ysabel's still going to Flint, MI for scoliosis treatments. When my brother taught at the U of Michigan Flint campus they lived in Grand Blanc. I never saw anyone want to get away from a place so badly as he and his wife wanted to get away from the Flint area! They were gone when he got his first job offer elsewhere. Brought me some fantastic Michigan cherries though, my goodness they were amazing! I had planned on visiting them in Michigan but they high tailed it out of there too fast! I hope these treatments really are working for that poor kid, and it's not just some crazy "doctors are scary" bullshit. Because of course, everyone is out to persecute Kody Brown (says the man-child who has a tv show, and yet no one beats down his door to arrest him). I wonder if Kody realizes, in his stupid little brain, that the ONLY interesting thing about him are his wives and kids? I find absolutely nothing about him, on his own without the family circus, interesting. Without multiple wives, he's just your run-of-the-mill, "I get to be in charge & make all the decisions because I have a penis", egotistical jerk with no job or any real skills. I snark plenty on the women, but at least they are interesting. Interesting in a crazy way, not a good way, mind you, but interesting nonetheless. Kody just isn't at all interesting to me, he's just like a thousand other middle-aged loser guys. (I know because I've dated most of them, HA!) Nah...Kody realizing that is too much for him. He's probably still wondering why the name of the show is "Sister Wives" and not "The Kody Brown Show". 6 Link to comment

All their lives they've seen her grab the biggest slice of pie for herself and Mariah, although in the years before the show there probably was not all that much to grab. Maddie's social media meltdown where she cryptically described "how great it feels to break free from a woman who has abused you your whole life" was absolutely about Meri, if you ask me. I mean, who else could she have meant? I think that was all quickly swept under the rug by Kody, because they want to portray how great polygamy is, when the reality is that many, MANY children of "other wives" are abused by some other "mom" due to jealousy. In fact I've read books by women who have escaped polygamy who say that sometimes mothers encourage their children to treat the children of other wives poorly. This lifestyle creates natural enemies. I have no doubt Meri treated Maddie and the other children like shit. In fact, it came out somewhere (in the book, maybe?) that Christine was no longer allowing Meri to be alone with her kids because she felt Meri was too harsh with them. Then the show started and everyone pretended to be one big happy family, and showed Meri interacting with Christine's kids like that whole problem never really existed. I call bullshit. I think Janelle and Christine co-parent to some degree, probably not as much as they'd like us to think, but somewhat. That's probably a pretty one-sided arrangement now...before the show, Janelle worked and in return, Christine took care of her kids (although Logan was doing way too much so Christine didn't totally care for Janelle's kids ALL the time)...but now, Janelle isn't working at anything I'd call a real job, and I can't imagine she volunteers to watch Christine's kids. But in any case, I don't think those two are afraid to have their children around the other mom, but I think everyone's always been fearful of how Meri might treat their kids. If they're not, they should be. 15 Link to comment
